Serena Williams Shares ‘Rare’ Video of Father Richard and Daughter Olympia

King Richard is a biopic about Richard Williams, the coach and the father of tennis queens Venus and Serena Williams. Notably, Richard had begun training his two daughters from a very young age, who later won 30 Grand Slams combined and dominated the sports for years. Now, the inspiring American coach has moved on to the next generation, rallying behind Serena’s three-old daughter Olympia. Indeed, his coaching spirit is eternal.

Fascinatingly, the 79-year-old was motivating his granddaughter as she rod the tricycle. And as he did for his daughters, Richard also recorded Olympia’s journey. On the other side, the 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams recorded King Richard at work once again.

In the video, Olympia certainly seemed pumped up riding the tricycle while her grandfather cheered for her. Even Richard had a big smile watching the freshest talent in the family peddle away.

When will Venus and Serena return to the tennis tour?

Fortunately, Serena confirmed that she would travel to Melbourne and play at the Australian Open 2022. She would indeed be going for her 24th Grand Slam title.

On the other side, Venus hasn’t confirmed her participation but would most likely follow her younger sister. However, due to her recent WTA Rankings fall, she might need a wild card this year.

Above all, the Williams sisters continue to work towards their goals as their father. Hopefully, their story will inspire the world to pursue their dreams.
